Description

Romney Marsh is the setting for Mrs. Edwards's new story.  Tamzin and Rissa, by now old friends to many readers, plan to camp in the Merrow's farm for part of their summer holidays.  Disaster, however, threatens to intervene when they learn that there is foot-and-mouth disease in the district and the farmer is dtermined on complete isolation.  Undaunted, Tamzin, Rissa and their friends arrive at the farm having first discovered a way of disinfecting themselves, and they are allowed to stay: and when an accident occurs to Mr. Merrow, all the friends are involved in a full-time job running the farm and patrolling its boundaries.  Incidents abound and the reader is kept thoroughly involved and excited by all that goes on.  No Entry is right up to the high standard Mrs. Edwards has already set herself, and it is confidently recommended to those who enjoy first-class storytelling and really life-like characters.

This new edition includes a preface by Shelley Edwards (Monica Edwards’ daughter), an article titled ‘Monica Edwards: The Person, The Places and the Books’ and a full publishing history of ‘No Entry’.
